O1 visa requirements

Meet at least 3 out of 8 to qualify

You received

an important award

Awards for you individually or for your company. For example "Best startup in India 2019", "Best architect in Moldova 2022", "Web design Warsaw week 2020 award" or "Best actor in Thailand" by the local motion picture academy.

You're a member of

a prestigious association

Prestigious means that not everyone can be a member. For example the association requires your business to have certain revenue to be a member or for existing 5 members to approve your application. You get the idea, right?

Your work was covered by

media or press

Your name appears in the major media. Major media = best known, widely circulated media. Think forbes.ua for Ukraine or TheTimes of London for UK. You would need to provide proof of media circulation. We will help you find it:)

You have invented

something important

Something unique that you have invented that was adopted by your industry (e.g., new type of treatment of a chronic illness or a new type of electric battery adopted by your industry). Should be both original (unique) and widely adopted.

You receive

"high" salary or compensation

What is high salary? The analysis is fairly technical. We will look at the US salaries and wages data to determine if you qualify. Feel free to ask us at the consultation.

You were

judge of other people's work

Self explanatory, but what the US Government wants to see is that you have judged others in some important competition (e.g., you were a judge in a designer competition in Georgia)

You published

articles as an author

You wrote an article or publication in professional journals or media. For example your wrote a scientific paper about extinct animal spices that was highly quoted or an article on data science that was highly popular within your community in Poland.

You played

a critical role in your organization

Consists of 2 things - (A) your employer is distinguished (proven by press, coverage, etc.) and (B) your role was important as proven by letters of recommendations/ job title etc. Don't worry we'll help you put that together as part of your process.

Hi Ariel, Just wanted to say THANK YOU for an amazing service and assistance with this case. It started a year ago, and now after all those months, I can relax (at least from this aspect). Just to share with you that it was one of the biggest administration challenges I need to complete as part of the company's Reset. Thank you again

EB2 Green Card
Daliah was recommended to my husband and me by an executive at the company we both work for, and she was very helpful as we prepared for my husband's K1 visa to immigrate to the United States. She provided Certified English Translations for my husband's Israeli documents, including court records. She met with us and helped us organize our documentation and navigate the visa process.
